    Anyone ever tried this plant?

    www.tropica.com http://www.tropica.com/go.asp?plant=110A

    Is it as big leaf as what's claimed in Tropica?

    Any pictures of submerged growth?

    Also where can I get this from? I don't recall ever seeing it in any LFS.

    Have you tried talking to Karin from Far East Aquatic? They might be able to order it for you.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    I bought this plant 1 year ago. The leaves are not as big as it claimed in Tropica website. The leaves are big only when it grows emmersed. The submersed leaves are thin, just like a normal undulata, and it grows very slow. I will post the picture for you soon.

    Thank you in advance for posting the pix!

    It would be a shame if it's going to be the same size as normal undulata.

    That's not broad man!

    I understand that crypts tend to differ when they are placed in different tanks.

    What's your tank specs bro?

    Yes, it's not broad like Tropica said. Maybe need some time to have a broader leaves. I keep them in my Cube 60x60x60 cm aquarium for 1 year and it grows like this. I moved them a month a ago to my 180 x 175 x 100 cm outdoor tank. Let's see how it grows in next several months.

    cube specification : 216L, 72watt, co2 4bps, jbl aquabasis
    outdoor tank : 768gallon, natural sunlight, 24-hrs water change, jbl aquabasis

    Regards,

    Jeffrey
